Faulty Building Law
Here Makes Figures
On Volume Obscure
A faulty building law in Cameron
mukes information impossible on the
volume of construction in thu city.
Permits are not required und with
no record it is dificult to correctly
list the value of new construction.
Like so many omissions of the past
the city could have served well if it
had enacted u simple ordinance re-
quiring permits for construction. No
up and going city in Americu would
think of any other course.
An ordinance requires fireproof
construction in the fire limits. This
ordinance is not enforced. The result
is insurance premiums are higher.
The key rate ordinance is 87 per cent
deficient. Property owners pay for
this deficiency on their insurance.
The volume of construction in Cam-
eron is large and has been increas-
ing and will he much higher as ma-
terials are available.
W. A. Gilbert, accompanied by his
son and wife, Mr. and Mrs. J. B. Gil-
bert of Houston, spent the Easter
holidays visiting relatives and friends
in Cameron and Mexia.

Like automobiles bumper-to-
bumper along a congested
highway, millions of long dis-
tance calls are crowding the
wires every day.
To meet this load, we are
training thousands of new
operators, adding thousands
of miles of new circuits, and
installing new switchboards
so that every call can be
handled promptly and to
your liking.
The millions of dollars we
are investing in this expan-
sion program will mean fewer
and fewer delayed calls as
construction work progresses.
Our aim is to bring everyone
better-than-prewar long dis-
tance service.
